Losing Weight: 3 Ways to Find Motivation

By Genevieve Cunningham

It's time to lose weight. You've put it off for as long as you can remember. But suddenly, you know that enough is enough. The only problem is that you can't seem to find the motivation anywhere. So what can you do? If you need help finding the motivation to drop a few pounds, take a look at these tips to help you today.

Step on a Scale

You might not like the scale, but it can be a motivating factor for some people to get their rear in gear. Often times, we don't know what we weigh. We have a number in our minds, but the reality may be far different from what we expect. If you haven't been on a scale in awhile, go ahead and step on one. After seeing your number, you may find all the motivation you need to get moving, burn calories, and finally lose that stubborn weight.

Get Visual

As humans, we're visual creatures. We do better when we can see what's happening around us. If you need motivation, you can get visual in two ways. First, take some pictures of yourself. You don't have to show anyone, but getting an outside glance of your own body may both shock you and motivate you to make changes. Second, find a body that makes you excited to emulate. Then work toward looking like that! You may never get there, but chances are good that you'll learn to love the body you have -- and the changes you're making -- along the way.

Set a Big Goal

Sometimes big goals are key to making things work. Have a reunion coming up? Set a goal. Need to fit in a beautiful dress? Set a goal. Real, tangible goals can help us get and stay on track. Think of something meaningful, and use it as motivation to keep moving forward.

Losing weight is not an easy process. If it was, everyone would look fit! But of course, it takes work and determination to actually find success. It takes time and effort, and that can be difficult for so many people! But luckily, you can make it easier on yourself by finding the right motivation. Use these tips to get moving, and enjoy the body and better health that come with it.
